For the Canadian television series on CBC Newsworld, see CounterSpin (television program).
CounterSpin is a weekly, half-hour radio program produced by the media watch group, Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting (FAIR). It is hosted by Janine Jackson, Steve Rendall, and Peter Hart.
CounterSpin offers a critical examination of the major news stories, and exposes what the mainstream media might have missed in their own coverage. The show also purports to expose and highlight biased and inaccurate news; censored stories; sexism, racism and homophobia in the news; the power of corporate influence; gaffes and goofs by leading TV pundits; TV news' narrowing of the political spectrum; and attacks on free speech.
It broadcasts nationally in the United States and Canada on over 130 radio stations and is available in MP3 and RealAudio format on the web.
